About

During Caring for Farm Animals & Making Food week, campers step fully into the daily rhythms of the farm, caring for animals and using the food those animals provide. Campers help care for goats, sheep, cows, alpacas, and chickens, learning how each species is fed, housed, and handled. As part of daily routines, campers collect eggs and work with fresh milk, connecting animal stewardship directly to the food that appears on the table. Throughout the week, campers explore animal health and wellness through hands-on observation and support. They learn to recognize healthy behavior, check hooves and feet, tend wool and hair, and understand how proper nutrition and daily care support animal well-being. Food-making is woven into the week as campers work with farm-fresh eggs and milk to create simple foods. Campers also create practical tools such as padded egg baskets and hand-carved wooden butter spoons designed for everyday use. Days are active, engaging, and responsibility-filled. Campers build confidence as they contribute meaningfully to daily farm life. This week is ideal for kids who love animals, enjoy helping out, and are curious about where their food comes from.
